| 0:15.0 | What's up, everyone? Emily Abadi here. You're listening to Five Minute Friday from Hurtle. I want to say, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. You all have really blown me away by how much you're interacting with the show this week. I love to see it. I love getting tagged on Instagram. I love you tagging friends to listen to the show and me seeing that on social media. |
| 0:43.5 | So whatever has inspired this, please keep doing it. I see that you loved the solo episode on things |
| 0:50.0 | that I have learned as a self-employed woman. So on that note, if there are other topics that |
| 0:57.4 | you're after for solo episodes, I am all ears. Feel free to DM us over either at, over either at |
| 1:04.3 | Hurtle podcast or Emily Abadi or hit me with an email. We are available. Hello at hurdle.us. Today I want to talk to you about |
| 1:13.0 | what happens when you just take a step away for a second. I've been working on a deal that I can't |

| 2:13.4 | And I was just in my flow state and getting things done, whatnot. I sat down to the desk in Dumbo, |
| 2:21.5 | which is a part of Brooklyn. And there was an email. And the email asked me to get on a call |
| 2:27.4 | in a few hours. And I got on the call and I feel as though it is human nature to get to this point where we're preparing for the worst, right? |
| 2:36.5 | So I went into the call thinking a lot of things could happen here. |
| 2:40.8 | And I was met with not only my desired outcome, but it was better than I could have imagined. |
